Welcome, Jeff. 👍 Hope you get enough laps to get up to full power. I know it takes me about 10 straight no-restart laps to get back up to speed on this seemingly easy (but not) combo.
Paul, I read "embarrass myself again" and then too-quickly glanced at your splits and figured "Oh he's starting out 1sec behind...". Only when I came back to see your post edited did I realize how good those first (and 2nd!) splits are. 👍 Any idea where the 0.3 was lost in T2? Oh right, in the 2nd chicane and Lesmos.

Debating on running this week. Took it for a spin yesterday and seemed great. My first warm up lap was a 34.2 in t1 then overshot the chicane staring at my split lol I brought Diablo 3 on the road with me left gt at home. May just do a Sunday run and see where I fall.

No, the embarrass myself again is just because I always do awful at these TT's. My handicap has gone down and down (or is it up and up?) since I got my division placement...
Anyway, yeh, a few more days and I should be able to get both sectors, not 1 or the other. I do love this track (loved it with the F40 online race from a bit ago), so hopefully this time I can actually get a score that's on par with the division I'm in!

Wow just did a .881 sector 1 but found a dirty spot exiting the second chicaneat least now I know what to do in sector 1
yeah I was the same yesterday, a low .8 is definitely possible, possibly even a high .7!
as for t2, I have a feeling there is a high .3 in there, so about .250 at the T2 split, and about .15 in T3 for me
-----
also, good effort Paul! 3 brits at the top 👍 now don't let them catch you!
Yeah def a high .7 is possible, my lowest is a 832 and I'm not an alien so I figure you D1ers can get a 750 in T1. T2 Im getting the hang of it, down to a .7 now but no consistency whatsover. I hope I can string everything up soon.
Def possible just did a 786 got nervous and spun it at lesmo 1

Haha I'll do my best.
Edit:
That horrible feeling where you can't quite understand how you are just never quite so fast as your ghost. "How did I go that fast before but not now!". Half an hour later, I just realise my power has gone down and I'm in need of an oil change.

Just had a lap that was up 0.299 at T2 and 0.260 at the line, but dirty in first chicane. 👎
I call that motivation.
Main differences vs last session are: 3/5 BB (now trying 4/6), and taking the 2nd chicane in 3rd instead of 2nd...

Well, that's thanks to low participation and to a couple of guys being recently promoted to D2... but I have been improving lately, for sure. (I should take my old wheel back out to see how much is due to my new wheel and how much is actually because of me improving.)

I've now pushed my current splits' lap-time off my local leaderboard in the game...10 faster laps and all are dirty. 
Grrrr.

Finally got a clean lap. But best-splits say that there's still 0.4 to 0.5 out there.
34.010
40.845
More than 0.250 at T2, and an almost identical T3 compared with previous posted splits.
Will definitely hit this some more. Surprising hidden time.

I went from a few hundredths behind to .3 behind you. I have been finding a few tenths every session, so who knows, maybe I can find some more in T1 and T2. I think I have settled on T3 line for now. I was trying hard braking and squealing the tires on the last corner, but I think it is better to slow down gradually nice and smooth and hit the gas as early as possible.

I second that, just done a .75* but messed up at the chicane in awe of the time
no new splits just yet.. but i'm close, just need to keep it clean now!

Nice, I'm sure you'll hook it up in no time. My best around sector 1 is now a .756 but blew it at the chicane then went straight into the gravel trap at lesmo 1 being too anxious. I have about 4/5 tents left out there but not chasing it today. A tough gym session today got me feeling exhausted.
